Pipe Tee

PIPE TEE – EQUAL TEE | REDUCING TEE MANUFACTURER/EXPORTER IN INDIA | ASME/ANSI B16.9, ANSI B16.28, MSS-SP-43 CARBON, ALLOY, STAINLESS STEEL EQUAL / REDUCER TEE


One of the top producers, distributors, and exporters of straight and reducing tees in a range of sizes and forms is Sk Tube Corporation. Ltd. Tee fittings, also called three-way pipe fittings, have a shape similar to the letter "T" and allow for the attachment of two horizontal pipes and one vertical pipe to control the flow and mixture of fluids. Pipe tees are primarily of two types: Equal Tee and Unequal Tee (Reducing Tee). They are commonly employed in pipe systems to convey two phase fluid mixes.


Equal tee is used when the branch size matches that of the header pipes, and reduced tee is used when the branch size is smaller than the header size. A t-shirt comes in three sizes: End x End x Center. Thus, the dimensions of a tee would be 1” x 1” x 3/4” if you wanted one that was 1” on both ends and 3/4” in the middle.


Not so regular buttweld lateral tees in carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, and nickel alloy grades are also produced by SK Tube Corporation.

Depending on our customer requirements, we can manufacture and offer straight tees and reducing tees in various grades including 202, 304/304L, 904L, 316/316L, Duplex 2205, Alloy 20, Cupro Nickel, Monel Alloy 400, Inconel Alloy 625, Inconel Alloy 600, Hastelloy Alloy C276, and also in various Aluminium Grades.
